How about;
"Fedora is similar to proprietary operating systems like
Microsoft Windows and provides an easy and powerful graphical
environment, office suite, games and more. It is a secure and virus-free
experience with brand new releases full of major improvements every six
months all for free (both in terms of cost, and ability to change the
underlying code to suit your own needs)."
Isn't it similar to *BSD too ?
"Fedora is an Operating System, just like Microsoft Windows, Apple Mac

There's one thing that is concerning me.
When I submitted a game package in fedora, I had a description similar
to "this game is in the style of<name of a commercial game>" and I
was told to remove the reference to a commercial trademark not owned
by the Fedora Project as it could cause legal issues.
Aren't we in a similar case by writing this kind of stuff on our wiki page ?
IMO we should NOT use comparisons, the moment you start to do this, you
acknowledge that you are a follower instead of a leader. Fedora is what
it is, a full OS that you can use for millions of things and this is how
we should market it.
